Society shall be permitted to continue in membership when his 
proofs of descent or eligibility shall be found to be defective. The

his claim, and upon his failure satisfactorily so to do, may require 
the Secretary to erase his name from the membership list. The 
said person shall have a right to appeal to the Society at its next

reasonable notice of such charges and afford such member reason- 
able opportunity to be heard and refute the same. The Council,

expulsion or suspension of such member, and if the recommenda-

of the Society present at such Court, he shall be so expelled or 
suspended, and the insignia of said member shall thereupon be

Secretary of any change in his place of residence and of his post- 
office address. 

CERTIFICATE OF MEMBERSHIP. 

XVIII. — Members may receive a certificate of membership, 
which shall be signed by the Governor, Secretary and Registrar. 

ALTERATION OR AMENDMENT. 

XIX. — No alteration or amendment of the by-laws shall be 
made unless notice shall have been duly given in writing, signed 
by the member proposing the same, at a Court of the Society. 

The Secretary shall send a printed copy of the proposed amend- 
ment to the members of the Society, and state the Court at which 
the same will be voted upon. No amendment or alteration shall 
be made unless adopted by a two-thirds vote of the members 
present at the Court voting upon the same. 



ANNIVERSARY. 



The Society will meet annually in General Court and will hold 
a banquet on October loth. This date is selected because it com- 
memorates two most important events in Colonial history. 

First — The occupation of Fort Chartres by English troops, 
October loth, 1765. By the Treaty of Paris, concluded February 
loth, 1763, was settled for all time the question which had been in 
doubt for a century — whether French or English civilization and 
rule should shape the destinies of this continent. By this treaty 
Canada and that portion of Louisiana between the Alleghenies and 
the Mississippi were ceded by the French and came into possession 
of Great Britain. Capt. Thomas Stirling, with a company of the 
426. Highlanders, came down the Ohio in boats from Fort Pitt 
(now Pittsburg), arriving early in October, 1765. On the tenth 
day of that month he relieved the French commander of Fort 
Chartres, St. Ange, who for some months had been under orders 
to give up the fort whenever a force of British came to relieve 
him. These were the first English troops who ever set foot in the 
Illinois country. Fort Chartres, built by the French in 1720, was 
in its time the strongest fortress in America. Its ruins are on 
the left bank of the Mississippi River, in Randolph County, 111., 
fifty miles south of St. Louis and sixteen miles northwest of 
Kaskaskia. 

Second — On October loth, 1774, occurred the Battle of Point 
Pleasant, at the junction of the Kanawha with the Ohio River. 
This was a most important battle, and the complete victory over 
the Indians under Cornstalk put an end to their assaults upon 
our frontiers. 

Both these events were important Colonial footsteps in the 
direction of the West, and hence it seems most appropriate that 
this day should be selected as the anniversary of the first Society 
formed west of the Allesfhenies. 



INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLICANTS AND MEMBERS. 



Family tradition will not be accepted by the Society for proof 
of ancestor's service. 

No original or supplemental application will be accepted by the 
Society that is not complete in the following particulars : 

1. Containing a reference for each act of service of ancestor. 

2. No cyclopaedias or genealogical works to be accepted as 
authority for service of ancestor, but reference required to doc- 
umentary records of the various Colonies, published Archives, 
histories of established reputation, and recognized works of local 
historical accuracy. 

3. Proceedings of Congress as well as the proceedings of the 
Conventions, Assemblies and Councils of the various Colonies. 

4. The pagination of reference in all cases to be required and 
verified. 

5. Reference to original documents to be supported by such 
documents, together with two type-written copies thereof, the 
original to be returned to the applicant after verification of copies 
in the office of the Registrar. 

6. All applications must be endorsed by two members of the 
Society. 

The State Society publishes a Register, containing the name 
and ancestor's service of the members of the Missouri Society, 
and publishes, free of charge, all supplemejital applications. One 
copy of this book is furnished every member free. Extra copies 
can be had for $2.00 each. 

The rosette to be worn in the upper button-hole of left lapel 
of the coat may be had of the Treasurer, George T. Parker, south- 
east corner Broadway and Locust, St. Louis, at a cost of 25 cents. 

The insignia, in gold, costing $22.00, or in silver gilt at $12.00, 
may be ordered through the Registrar. It is optional with mem- 
bers whether they purchase the rosette or insignia. 



18 ^ocietg of Cofonidf HJ^arB. 

The General Society issues a Diploma Certificate of Member- 
ship, engrossed on heavy parchment, with the signatures of the 
officers of the General Society and State Society attached. This 
Diploma is a fine work of art. It is optional with members 
whether they purchase the same. If desired, it must be ordered 
through the Registrar of the State Society, and costs $7.75 framed, 
and express charges to be added from New York to destination. 

SUPPLEMENTAL APPLICATIONS. 

When descent can be shown from more than one ancestor as 
described, supplemental applications may be filed — one for each 
additional line of descent. 

FEES. 

The membership fee is $5, and the annual dues $5, which sums 
must accompany the application. 

The General Society also requires a fee of fifty cents for filing 
every supplemental application, which sum must accompany the 
same. 

Blank applications and any information concerning the Society 
can be had by addressing the Secretary.

THIRD LADY HOLLAND, GREAT-GRAXDDAUGIITER OF MERCY SANDS, 

Celebrated as the friend of Byron, Moore, Sheridan, and all the wits and beaux who 
frequented her home Holland House, I^ondon ; also friend of Napoleon ist and Josephine, 
and she and the Duchess of Devonshire would don the buff and blue and electioneer for 
Fox, uncle of Lord Holland. She and her friends sympathized with the Americans 
during the Revolution. In the British Museum is a snuff-box presented to Napoleon by 
Pope Pius VL ; Napoleon on his death left it to his friend " Lady Holland." Lord Car- 
lisle wished her to reject the gift ; here are two verses from his poem : 
" Lady reject the gift, beneath its lid 

Discord, and slaughter, and relentless war. 
With every plague to wretched man, lie hid — 
Let not these loose, to range the world afar: 
Say what congenial to his heart of stone 

In thy soft bosom could the Tyrant trace? 
When does the Dove the Eagle's friendship own 
Or the Wolf hold the Lamb in pure embrace? " 
But Tom Moore's verse was more consonant to her feelings : 
" Gift of the Hero on his dying day 

To her, whose pity watch'd for ever nigh. 
Oh ! cou'd he see the proud, the happy ray 
This relic lights up in her generous eye. 
Sighing, he'd feel how easy 'tis to pay 

A friendship— all his Kingdom cou'd not buy."

James /iDcCorD. 



Born January 7. 1826. 
Died September 24, 1903. 



James McCord was born in Randolph County, Virginia, Janu- 
ary 7, 1826, and died at his home in St. Joseph, Missouri, Septem- 
ber 24, 1903. His father was William McCord, born in Albe- 
marle County, Virginia, where he married Sallie Moss Field, 
daughter of Capt. John Field, an officer of the War of 181 2. He 
afterwards removed to Missouri with his family, living first at 
Cape Girardeau, and afterwards at Versailles, where he died in 
1839. James McCord, then a mere lad, with only the advantages 
of such common school education as was given in those days, was 
compelled at once to commence the earnest work of life. His be- 
ginnings were in Central Missouri, and in 1846 he moved to Sa- 
vannah, where he formed a co-partnership with Abraham Nave, 
which lasted until the death of Mr. Nave a few years ago. He 
had hardly attained his majority when, as a member of this firm, 
he made a successful business trip to California, crossing the then 
almost unknown plains and the Rocky Mountain regions, with mer- 
chandise and cattle. In 1854 he was married to Miss Mary Hal- 
lack, of Kentucky, who survives him. Also two daughters and 
five sons survive him. 

In 1857 he and Mr. Nave established the first exclusively 
wholesale grocery house of Western Missouri at St. Joseph, with 
which he remained until his death. During this period branch 
houses were established at Omaha, Kansas City, St. Louis and at 
prominent points in Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and Colorado, all 
of which were under his immediate supervision. No man in mer- 



3n (Btemortdm. 12 1 



cantile pursuits was better known in St. Joseph and the territory 
tributary than Mr. McCord. No one could come within the sphere 
of his influence without feeling the influence of his masterful per- 
sonality. While he did not court popularity, even the most casual 
acquaintance would recognize his uniform courtesy. And those 
most often brought in contact with him found in him a genial 
spirit lighting up the realities of business with evidence of a rare 
humor and a close friendship, which was never withdrawn from 
the true hearted. He was unerring in his choice of lieutenants 
for his vast and diversified interests, and was to them liberal and 
just. Kind and considerate to his employes, he never failed to 
advise and warn, as would a father, those whom he felt needed 
guidance and admonition. 

His mind was not so absorbed in business that he did not take 
a delight in good literature, and he could state the substance of his 
reading with a conciseness and accuracy seldom attained by schol- 
ars and professional men. 

The greatest of his qualities was his strict integrity, which 
never for temporary gain permitted the slightest deviation from 
the paths of rectitude or sought injustice to those with whom he 
dealt. With such qualities of head and heart, of habit and train- 
ing through so many years, he was at the time of his death the

branch of the Sampson family in America was Abraham Samp- 
son, who came from England and joined the Plymouth Colony 
two years after the landing of the Mayflower, and was a member 
of the Duxbury Militia Company in 1643. Abraham Sampson 
married a daughter of Samuel Nash, lieutenant of the Duxbury 
Militia Company, and their son, Isaac, married Lydia Standish, a 
daughter of Alexander and Sarah (Alden) Standish, son and 
daughter respectively of Captain Myles Standish and John Alden. 
Among the ancestors, therefore, of Mr. Sampson, in the paternal 
line, were at least three conspicuous in the Mayflower compact. 
And his mother also belonged to an old New England family, his 
great-grandfather being an officer in the Revolutionary War. 

When twenty-one years of age Mr. Sampson became secretary 
of a manufacturing corporation at Northampton, Massachusetts, 
and became connected with the Corticelli Silk Mills, and for some 
time represented this interest in New York City. In 1879 ^^ 
came to St. Louis and opened a wholesale establishment for the 
distribution of the products of the Corticelli Silk Mills throughout 
the West and South. The silk business which he established 
steadily expanded until it now occupies a conspicuous position 
among the commercial institutions of St. Louis. A man of prac- 
tical ideas, large resourcefulness, and superior organizing capac- 
ity, he was conspicuous for his energy and prompt action ; candid

organized a committee of five hundred members, and in a single 
day raised a fund of $90,000.00 for entertainment purposes. He

sary funds and erected the first monument to General U. S. Grant.

tion. Their children are Marjorie, Hazel, Maybell and Helen
